Not a very nice feature ChunkVNC.
If you install a service ChunkVNC and "Disable" the network card, then every 5-7 seconds, hear no pleasant sound.
What should I do? What to do?

I've taken to disabling the system beep (by going to Device Manager, showing hidden devices, going to the Non-Plug and Play Drivers, Beep, and stopping the service/setting the start-up type to disabled). The cursor change is still a hassle, but at least the laptop isn't beeping all the time with no network connection present!
Having ChunkVNC installed as a service on laptops has many advantages. One notable one is the ability to "track" a lost or stolen laptop by watching for it to connect in the repeater log, noting the IP address, etc.
